He was declared persona non grata  , however, I believe a miracoulous and phoenix like resurrection maybe underway!

Again? Or is this rev 2 of the Craig Hutchison spat?

It's raining in the north and west

And the East... but apparently the G remains a Shangri-La vs the dreaded Melbourne eddy and Grundy is safe to play!

Excellent bus ride in. Now onto the Mountain View for the Matildas.

Dr. Who's fault.

All charges dropped surely!

Australia looks very lethargic. France's ball handling far better in the early game so far. They'll will win this easily I'm afraid...

Grey, overcast and wet here in NW Europe. This weather should hit Melbourne around October. 

 

32○ here in koh samui.

Not 7.30 yet my friend 


32 or so here in Manila where I'm reinforcing a classic Demon stereotype in the Cathay Business lounge.

Haven't heard from @picket fence of late.

Is there any truth to the rumour that he's been in a state of euphoric intoxication since Clarrie's return was announced ?

Forget the ''Euphoric Intoxication"Uncle, I have been hooked up to a Scotch and coke machine intraveniously in one arm, and Milkthistle, Liver cleanser in the other!!😁


What time does this game start?

Has it been changed again?

Risky travel so stay alert. I guess the disgusting aromas will keep you intuitive - but simultaneously, green around the gills. When the train doors opens at the station, you'll feel like your in heaven. Just like the last 60 seconds of the 4th quarter, to come.

I have placed lurve above footy.  Very difficult choice as you would appreciate.

I shall be with my darling Blues-supporting partner in a cinema watching a movie that starts at 7:30pm.  Phones on silent, with no peeking.

Last time we went to the Dees-Blues game at the G it nearly ended in blows (not the good sort!)

I’m dreading the possibility of a Melbourne vs Pies GF. My poor husband told friends that he would secretly be barracking for the Dees if this happens - just to keep the peace ✌️ 

Jeez…lions very lucky not to be paid insufficient intent or whatever it is for walking it through the behinds...


Feels like the showers has stopped. At least for the moment.

Anyone seen Oliver in the warmup? Can’t sight him.

A couple of our players watching the game instead of warming up.

 

All good…sighted .

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
